etcdctl
========

`etcdctl` is a command line client for [etcd][etcd].
Make sure to set environment variable `ETCDCTL_API=3`. For etcdctl v2, please check [READMEv2][READMEv2].

Global flags (e.g., `dial-timeout`, `--cacert`, `--cert`, `--key`) can be set with environment variables:

```
ETCDCTL_DIAL_TIMEOUT=3s
ETCDCTL_CACERT=/tmp/ca.pem
ETCDCTL_CERT=/tmp/cert.pem
ETCDCTL_KEY=/tmp/key.pem
```

Prefix flag strings with `ETCDCTL_`, convert all letters to upper-case, and replace dash(`-`) with underscore(`_`).

## Key-value commands

### PUT [options] \<key\> \<value\>

PUT assigns the specified value with the specified key. If key already holds a value, it is overwritten.

RPC: Put

#### Options

- lease -- lease ID (in hexadecimal) to attach to the key.

- prev-kv -- return the previous key-value pair before modification.

- ignore-value -- updates the key using its current value.

- ignore-lease -- updates the key using its current lease.

#### Output

`OK`

#### Examples

```bash
./etcdctl put foo bar --lease=1234abcd
# OK
./etcdctl get foo
# foo
# bar
./etcdctl put foo --ignore-value # to detache lease
# OK
```

```bash
./etcdctl put foo bar --lease=1234abcd
# OK
./etcdctl put foo bar1 --ignore-lease # to use existing lease 1234abcd
# OK
./etcdctl get foo
# foo
# bar1
```

```bash
./etcdctl put foo bar1 --prev-kv
# OK
# foo
# bar
./etcdctl get foo
# foo
# bar1
```

#### Remarks

If \<value\> isn't given as command line argument, this command tries to read the value from standard input.

When \<value\> begins with '-', \<value\> is interpreted as a flag.
Insert '--' for workaround:

```bash
./etcdctl put <key> -- <value>
./etcdctl put -- <key> <value>
```

### GET [options] \<key\> [range_end]

GET gets the key or a range of keys [key, range_end) if `range-end` is given.

RPC: Range

#### Options

- hex -- print out key and value as hex encode string

- limit -- maximum number of results

- prefix -- get keys by matching prefix

- order -- order of results; ASCEND or DESCEND

- sort-by -- sort target; CREATE, KEY, MODIFY, VALUE, or VERSION

- rev -- specify the kv revision

- print-value-only -- print only value when used with write-out=simple

- consistency -- Linearizable(l) or Serializable(s)

- from-key -- Get keys that are greater than or equal to the given key using byte compare

- keys-only -- Get only the keys

#### Output

\<key\>\n\<value\>\n\<next_key\>\n\<next_value\>...

#### Examples

First, populate etcd with some keys:

```bash
./etcdctl put foo bar
# OK
./etcdctl put foo1 bar1
# OK
./etcdctl put foo2 bar2
# OK
./etcdctl put foo3 bar3
# OK
```

Get the key named `foo`:

```bash
./etcdctl get foo
# foo
# bar
```

Get all keys:

```bash
./etcdctl get --from-key ''
# foo
# bar
# foo1
# bar1
# foo2
# foo2
# foo3
# bar3
```

Get all keys with names greater than or equal to `foo1`:

```bash
./etcdctl get --from-key foo1
# foo1
# bar1
# foo2
# bar2
# foo3
# bar3
```

Get keys with names greater than or equal to `foo1` and less than `foo3`:

```bash
./etcdctl get foo1 foo3
# foo1
# bar1
# foo2
# bar2
```

#### Remarks

If any key or value contains non-printable characters or control characters, simple formatted output can be ambiguous due to new lines. To resolve this issue, set `--hex` to hex encode all strings.

### DEL [options] \<key\> [range_end]

Removes the specified key or range of keys [key, range_end) if `range-end` is given.

RPC: DeleteRange

#### Options

- prefix -- delete keys by matching prefix

- prev-kv -- return deleted key-value pairs

- from-key -- delete keys that are greater than or equal to the given key using byte compare

#### Output

Prints the number of keys that were removed in decimal if DEL succeeded.

#### Examples

```bash
./etcdctl put foo bar
# OK
./etcdctl del foo
# 1
./etcdctl get foo
```

```bash
./etcdctl put key val
# OK
./etcdctl del --prev-kv key
# 1
# key
# val
./etcdctl get key
```

```bash
./etcdctl put a 123
# OK
./etcdctl put b 456
# OK
./etcdctl put z 789
# OK
./etcdctl del --from-key a
# 3
./etcdctl get --from-key a
```

```bash
./etcdctl put zoo val
# OK
./etcdctl put zoo1 val1
# OK
./etcdctl put zoo2 val2
# OK
./etcdctl del --prefix zoo
# 3
./etcdctl get zoo2
```

### TXN [options]

TXN reads multiple etcd requests from standard input and applies them as a single atomic transaction.
A transaction consists of list of conditions, a list of requests to apply if all the conditions are true, and a list of requests to apply if any condition is false.

RPC: Txn

#### Options

- hex -- print out keys and values as hex encoded strings.

- interactive -- input transaction with interactive prompting.

#### Input Format
```ebnf
<Txn> ::= <CMP>* "\n" <THEN> "\n" <ELSE> "\n"
<CMP> ::= (<CMPCREATE>|<CMPMOD>|<CMPVAL>|<CMPVER>|<CMPLEASE>) "\n"
<CMPOP> ::= "<" | "=" | ">"
<CMPCREATE> := ("c"|"create")"("<KEY>")" <REVISION>
<CMPMOD> ::= ("m"|"mod")"("<KEY>")" <CMPOP> <REVISION>
<CMPVAL> ::= ("val"|"value")"("<KEY>")" <CMPOP> <VALUE>
<CMPVER> ::= ("ver"|"version")"("<KEY>")" <CMPOP> <VERSION>
<CMPLEASE> ::= "lease("<KEY>")" <CMPOP> <LEASE>
<THEN> ::= <OP>*
<ELSE> ::= <OP>*
<OP> ::= ((see put, get, del etcdctl command syntax)) "\n"
<KEY> ::= (%q formatted string)
<VALUE> ::= (%q formatted string)
<REVISION> ::= "\""[0-9]+"\""
<VERSION> ::= "\""[0-9]+"\""
<LEASE> ::= "\""[0-9]+\""
```

#### Output

`SUCCESS` if etcd processed the transaction success list, `FAILURE` if etcd processed the transaction failure list. Prints the output for each command in the executed request list, each separated by a blank line.

#### Examples

txn in interactive mode:
```bash
./etcdctl txn -i
# compares:
mod("key1") > "0"

# success requests (get, put, delete):
put key1 "overwrote-key1"

# failure requests (get, put, delete):
put key1 "created-key1"
put key2 "some extra key"

# FAILURE

# OK

# OK
```

txn in non-interactive mode:
```bash
./etcdctl txn <<<'mod("key1") > "0"

put key1 "overwrote-key1"

put key1 "created-key1"
put key2 "some extra key"

'

# FAILURE

# OK

# OK
```

### COMPACTION [options] \<revision\>

COMPACTION discards all etcd event history prior to a given revision. Since etcd uses a multiversion concurrency control
model, it preserves all key updates as event history. When the event history up to some revision is no longer needed,
all superseded keys may be compacted away to reclaim storage space in the etcd backend database.

RPC: Compact

#### Options

- physical -- 'true' to wait for compaction to physically remove all old revisions

#### Output

Prints the compacted revision.

#### Example
```bash
./etcdctl compaction 1234
# compacted revision 1234
```

### WATCH [options] [key or prefix] [range_end] [--] [exec-command arg1 arg2 ...]

Watch watches events stream on keys or prefixes, [key or prefix, range_end) if `range-end` is given. The watch command runs until it encounters an error or is terminated by the user.  If range_end is given, it must be lexicographically greater than key or "\x00".

RPC: Watch

#### Options

- hex -- print out key and value as hex encode string

- interactive -- begins an interactive watch session

- prefix -- watch on a prefix if prefix is set.

- prev-kv -- get the previous key-value pair before the event happens.

- rev -- the revision to start watching. Specifying a revision is useful for observing past events.

#### Input format

Input is only accepted for interactive mode.

```
watch [options] <key or prefix>\n
```

#### Output

\<event\>[\n\<old_key\>\n\<old_value\>]\n\<key\>\n\<value\>\n\<event\>\n\<next_key\>\n\<next_value\>\n...

#### Examples

##### Non-interactive

```bash
./etcdctl watch foo
# PUT
# foo
# bar
```

```bash
ETCDCTL_WATCH_KEY=foo ./etcdctl watch
# PUT
# foo
# bar
```

Receive events and execute `echo watch event received`:

```bash
./etcdctl watch foo -- echo watch event received
# PUT
# foo
# bar
# watch event received
```

Watch response is set via `ETCD_WATCH_*` environmental variables:

```bash
./etcdctl watch foo -- sh -c "env | grep ETCD_WATCH_"

# PUT
# foo
# bar
# ETCD_WATCH_REVISION=11
# ETCD_WATCH_KEY="foo"
# ETCD_WATCH_EVENT_TYPE="PUT"
# ETCD_WATCH_VALUE="bar"
```

Watch with environmental variables and execute `echo watch event received`:

```bash
export ETCDCTL_WATCH_KEY=foo
./etcdctl watch -- echo watch event received
# PUT
# foo
# bar
# watch event received
```

```bash
export ETCDCTL_WATCH_KEY=foo
export ETCDCTL_WATCH_RANGE_END=foox
./etcdctl watch -- echo watch event received
# PUT
# fob
# bar
# watch event received
```

##### Interactive

```bash
./etcdctl watch -i
watch foo
watch foo
# PUT
# foo
# bar
# PUT
# foo
# bar
```

Receive events and execute `echo watch event received`:

```bash
./etcdctl watch -i
watch foo -- echo watch event received
# PUT
# foo
# bar
# watch event received
```

Watch with environmental variables and execute `echo watch event received`:

```bash
export ETCDCTL_WATCH_KEY=foo
./etcdctl watch -i
watch -- echo watch event received
# PUT
# foo
# bar
# watch event received
```

```bash
export ETCDCTL_WATCH_KEY=foo
export ETCDCTL_WATCH_RANGE_END=foox
./etcdctl watch -i
watch -- echo watch event received
# PUT
# fob
# bar
# watch event received
```

+------------------------+------------+
```

### ALARM \<subcommand\>

Provides alarm related commands

### ALARM DISARM

`alarm disarm` Disarms all alarms

RPC: Alarm

#### Output

`alarm:<alarm type>` if alarm is present and disarmed.

#### Examples

```bash
./etcdctl alarm disarm
```

If NOSPACE alarm is present:

```bash
./etcdctl alarm disarm
# alarm:NOSPACE
```

### ALARM LIST

`alarm list` lists all alarms.

RPC: Alarm

#### Output

`alarm:<alarm type>` if alarm is present, empty string if no alarms present.

#### Examples

```bash
./etcdctl alarm list
```

If NOSPACE alarm is present:

```bash
./etcdctl alarm list
# alarm:NOSPACE
```

### DEFRAG [options]

DEFRAG defragments the backend database file for a set of given endpoints while etcd is running, or directly defragments an etcd data directory while etcd is not running. When an etcd member reclaims storage space from deleted and compacted keys, the space is kept in a free list and the database file remains the same size. By defragmenting the database, the etcd member releases this free space back to the file system.

**Note that defragmentation to a live member blocks the system from reading and writing data while rebuilding its states.**

**Note that defragmentation request does not get replicated over cluster. That is, the request is only applied to the local node. Specify all members in `--endpoints` flag.**

#### Options

- data-dir -- Optional. If present, defragments a data directory not in use by etcd.

#### Output

For each endpoints, prints a message indicating whether the endpoint was successfully defragmented.

#### Example

```bash
./etcdctl --endpoints=localhost:2379,badendpoint:2379 defrag
# Finished defragmenting etcd member[localhost:2379]
# Failed to defragment etcd member[badendpoint:2379] (grpc: timed out trying to connect)
```

To defragment a data directory directly, use the `--data-dir` flag:

``` bash
# Defragment while etcd is not running
./etcdctl defrag --data-dir default.etcd
# success (exit status 0)
# Error: cannot open database at default.etcd/member/snap/db
```

#### Remarks

DEFRAG returns a zero exit code only if it succeeded defragmenting all given endpoints.

### SNAPSHOT \<subcommand\>

SNAPSHOT provides commands to restore a snapshot of a running etcd server into a fresh cluster.

### SNAPSHOT SAVE \<filename\>

SNAPSHOT SAVE writes a point-in-time snapshot of the etcd backend database to a file.

#### Output

The backend snapshot is written to the given file path.

#### Example

Save a snapshot to "snapshot.db":
```
./etcdctl snapshot save snapshot.db
```

### SNAPSHOT RESTORE [options] \<filename\>

SNAPSHOT RESTORE creates an etcd data directory for an etcd cluster member from a backend database snapshot and a new cluster configuration. Restoring the snapshot into each member for a new cluster configuration will initialize a new etcd cluster preloaded by the snapshot data.

#### Options

The snapshot restore options closely resemble to those used in the `etcd` command for defining a cluster.

- data-dir -- Path to the data directory. Uses \<name\>.etcd if none given.

echo ${transferee_id}
# c89feb932daef420

# endpoints should include leader node
./etcdctl --endpoints ${transferee_ep} move-leader ${transferee_id}
# Error:  no leader endpoint given at [localhost:22379 localhost:32379]

# request to leader with target node ID

## Concurrency commands

### LOCK [options] \<lockname\> [command arg1 arg2 ...]

LOCK acquires a distributed named mutex with a given name. Once the lock is acquired, it will be held until etcdctl is terminated.

#### Options

- ttl - time out in seconds of lock session.

#### Output

Once the lock is acquired, the result for the GET on the unique lock holder key is displayed.

If a command is given, it will be launched with environment variables `ETCD_LOCK_KEY` and `ETCD_LOCK_REV` set to the lock's holder key and revision.

#### Example

Acquire lock with standard output display:

```bash
./etcdctl lock mylock
# mylock/1234534535445
```

Acquire lock and execute `echo lock acquired`:

```bash
./etcdctl lock mylock echo lock acquired
# lock acquired
```

#### Remarks

LOCK returns a zero exit code only if it is terminated by a signal and releases the lock.

If LOCK is abnormally terminated or fails to contact the cluster to release the lock, the lock will remain held until the lease expires. Progress may be delayed by up to the default lease length of 60 seconds.

### ELECT [options] \<election-name\> [proposal]

ELECT participates on a named election. A node announces its candidacy in the election by providing
a proposal value. If a node wishes to observe the election, ELECT listens for new leaders values.
Whenever a leader is elected, its proposal is given as output.

#### Options

- listen -- observe the election.

#### Output

- If a candidate, ELECT displays the GET on the leader key once the node is elected election.

- If observing, ELECT streams the result for a GET on the leader key for the current election and all future elections.

#### Example

```bash
./etcdctl elect myelection foo
# myelection/1456952310051373265
# foo
```

#### Remarks

ELECT returns a zero exit code only if it is terminated by a signal and can revoke its candidacy or leadership, if any.

If a candidate is abnormally terminated, election rogress may be delayed by up to the default lease length of 60 seconds.

## Utility commands

### MAKE-MIRROR [options] \<destination\>

[make-mirror][mirror] mirrors a key prefix in an etcd cluster to a destination etcd cluster.

#### Options

- dest-cacert -- TLS certificate authority file for destination cluster

- dest-cert -- TLS certificate file for destination cluster

- dest-key -- TLS key file for destination cluster

- prefix -- The key-value prefix to mirror

- dest-prefix -- The destination prefix to mirror a prefix to a different prefix in the destination cluster

- no-dest-prefix -- Mirror key-values to the root of the destination cluster

- dest-insecure-transport -- Disable transport security for client connections

#### Output

The approximate total number of keys transferred to the destination cluster, updated every 30 seconds.

#### Examples

```
./etcdctl make-mirror mirror.example.com:2379
# 10
# 18
```

[mirror]: ./doc/mirror_maker.md

### MIGRATE [options]

Migrates keys in a v2 store to a v3 mvcc store. Users should run migration command for all members in the cluster.

#### Options

- data-dir -- Path to the data directory

- wal-dir -- Path to the WAL directory

- transformer -- Path to the user-provided transformer program (default if not provided)

#### Output

No output on success.

#### Default transformer

If user does not provide a transformer program, migrate command will use the default transformer. The default transformer transforms `storev2` formatted keys into `mvcc` formatted keys according to the following Go program:

```go
func transform(n *storev2.Node) *mvccpb.KeyValue {
	if n.Dir {
		return nil
	}
	kv := &mvccpb.KeyValue{
		Key:            []byte(n.Key),
		Value:          []byte(n.Value),
		CreateRevision: int64(n.CreatedIndex),
		ModRevision:    int64(n.ModifiedIndex),
		Version:        1,
	}
	return kv
}
```

#### User-provided transformer

Users can provide a customized 1:n transformer function that transforms a key from the v2 store to any number of keys in the mvcc store. The migration program writes JSON formatted [v2 store keys][v2key] to the transformer program's stdin, reads protobuf formatted [mvcc keys][v3key] back from the transformer program's stdout, and finishes migration by saving the transformed keys into the mvcc store.

The provided transformer should read until EOF and flush the stdout before exiting to ensure data integrity.

#### Example

```
./etcdctl migrate --data-dir=/var/etcd --transformer=k8s-transformer
# finished transforming keys
```

### VERSION

Prints the version of etcdctl.

#### Output

Prints etcd version and API version.

#### Examples

```bash
./etcdctl version
# etcdctl version: 3.1.0-alpha.0+git
# API version: 3.1
```

## Exit codes

For all commands, a successful execution return a zero exit code. All failures will return non-zero exit codes.

## Output formats

All commands accept an output format by setting `-w` or `--write-out`. All commands default to the "simple" output format, which is meant to be human-readable. The simple format is listed in each command's `Output` description since it is customized for each command. If a command has a corresponding RPC, it will respect all output formats.

If a command fails, returning a non-zero exit code, an error string will be written to standard error regardless of output format.

### Simple

A format meant to be easy to parse and human-readable. Specific to each command.

### JSON

The JSON encoding of the command's [RPC response][etcdrpc]. Since etcd's RPCs use byte strings, the JSON output will encode keys and values in base64.

Some commands without an RPC also support JSON; see the command's `Output` description.

### Protobuf

The protobuf encoding of the command's [RPC response][etcdrpc]. If an RPC is streaming, the stream messages will be concetenated. If an RPC is not given for a command, the protobuf output is not defined.

### Fields

An output format similar to JSON but meant to parse with coreutils. For an integer field named `Field`, it writes a line in the format `"Field" : %d` where `%d` is go's integer formatting. For byte array fields, it writes `"Field" : %q` where `%q` is go's quoted string formatting (e.g., `[]byte{'a', '\n'}` is written as `"a\n"`).

## Compatibility Support

etcdctl is still in its early stage. We try out best to ensure fully compatible releases, however we might break compatibility to fix bugs or improve commands. If we intend to release a version of etcdctl with backward incompatibilities, we will provide notice prior to release and have instructions on how to upgrade.

### Input Compatibility

Input includes the command name, its flags, and its arguments. We ensure backward compatibility of the input of normal commands in non-interactive mode.

### Output Compatibility

Output includes output from etcdctl and its exit code. etcdctl provides `simple` output format by default.
We ensure compatibility for the `simple` output format of normal commands in non-interactive mode. Currently, we do not ensure
backward compatibility for `JSON` format and the format in non-interactive mode. Currently, we do not ensure backward compatibility of utility commands.
